Childhood and Innocence.

I don't really know how to explain it, but the tale of Peter Pan is strange to me.
Mostly because of the actual neuroses of the characters of Peter Pan and Jas. Hook. You don't understand the constant battle Hook goes through in his mind of what is good and bad form, you don't understand that Peter Pan is arrogant, forgetful, and the kind of kid that manifests the bad parts of alseimer's when you watch the Disney version. If you tell Peter he is wrong, then bad things happen, if you don't play along, bad things happen, because Peter Pan is crazy. he has no memory, he kills Hook, and then the next time Wendy sees him he doesn't remember his arch enemy. He also doesn't remember Tinker Bell.
It almost seems to me to be a perversion of a childhood classic, but then, truthfully, Disney did that for a huge portion of the population, including me.
It's a story that brings to mind the lost world of childhood and innocence.
I'd like to re-write it into something that is a bit more concise, but then again, i have enough projects right now that I am not working on as it is.
